The Gregorian calendar

When I first learned that the word "month" came from the word "moon", I wondered why the month does not start with the new moon. I thought something is wrong with the calendar. Later on, I had another question in my mind. Why does the year start in winter? Should it not start in spring? The questions, however, would not make sense to anyone, so I did not ask anybody. But you must have noticed what I have noticed. The calendar that we have is a direct contradiction of what Yahuwah wants in the Bible. The calendar in the Bible starts with the spring, and the months start with the new moon. The calendar that we have starts in winter, and the months start in the full moon.

We have been lied at for centuries. Our calendar now only started when Pope Gregory XIII introduced his calendar in 1582. The Gregorian calendar had to replace the Julian calendar because it was drifting Easter away from the equinox each year. It was lagging behind by 11 minutes every year. The Julian calendar was implemented by Julius Ceasar in 46 B.C, about 124 years before the destruction of Jerusalem in 70 A.D. Let us make some calculation. By the time the Gregorian calendar was implemented (1582), the Julian calendar (46 B.C.) had been there for 1,628 years (1582 + 46 ). That means that the Julian Easter was already 12 days away from the spring equinox (1628 x 11 minutes ÷ 60 minutes ÷ 24 hours).

For sixteen centuries this lie has been handed down from generation to generation until our generation of today. It has become truth in our hearts and in our minds to the extent that anyone questioning it becomes a liar in our eyes. Any question against it becomes ridiculous and nonsensical. So, the whole world decides to follow blindly whatever the church dictates, and forget about what Yahuwah says in the Bible:

Exodus 12:2 This month shall be unto you the beginning of months: it shall be the first month of the year to you.

The month referred to by the above verse begins with the new moon in spring, the first month after the vernal equinox. In contradiction to that, now the world, even Israel celebrates the new year on January 1, when the moon is full in winter. Worse, the Sabbath which should be based on the moon cycle is forgotten:

Psalms 104:19 He appointed the moon for seasons: the sun knoweth his going down.

In our newsletter last Sabbath we explained that the violation of the Sabbath casts a shadow of death on earth. Forgetting the Biblical Sabbath messes up all the feasts required by Yahuwah in the book of Leviticus. All these confusion were made possible by the adoption of the Julian and later on until today the Gregorian calendar. Everything that Yahuwah required was forgotten:

Luke 8:21 But He answered and said to them, My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.

This is how god believers all over the world are being led away from the Father and His Son, and consequently into the gates of hell.

Matthew 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:

Many would ask, what is so big deal about the calendar? The big deal is that, we are supposed to do what the Father in heaven wants.

The Forbidden Fruit

People wonder if the fruit that Eve ate was really an apple. Most people say it was an apple. The Bible does not say anything making people...
